Hi All.... new to MediaPortal. RC4 is my first install of MediaPortal. I have a problem where the TV Service seems to stop working about every 2 days. The only way I can seem to recover is a reboot. At the point of the failure MediaPortal prompts with " Connection to TV Service lost". At that point it goes to the EPG but there is no details and the screen background is black.. like it has lost TV signal.
TV Service is supposedly still running in the services applet and a restart of both MySQL and TVService services does not work.. only a reboot brings back the TV service.

any suggestions would be helpful.

thanks
j
